- like a virgin -
This Memorial Day weekend, I did the following 3 things for the first time in my life:
- watched Indy 500
- ate s'mores
- watched the sunset

My favorite quote from Oxymoronica so far:
When people tell you how young you look,
they are telling you how old you are.
- Cary Grant
Still, I'm glad that I get ID'ed all the time. (Though, as I pointed out to Matt the other day, it probably has a lot to do with the fact that I'm also a borderline midget.)

Oxymoronica is a book of paradoxes, not oxymorons. So, why isn't it called Paradoxica?

I don't have issues. I have a full subscription.

I fired my therapist today because I got tired of going "you know, it's kinda like in [a TV show/movie title] when [a scene from said show/movie that perfectly describes my situation]" just to have him blankly stare back at me like I'm babbling about the general theory of relativity. All I want for Christmas is a therapist who's down with obscure pop culture references. Is that so much to ask?

- revenge of the 30-year-old virgins -
Overheard during this morning's Amazon screening of Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith:
Guy 1: And I said "I'll use my Jedi mind tricks on you!" And she was like, "what?"
Guy 2: On your *first* date? Dude!
Good grief. Oh, and the girl sitting 2 rows in front of me had her hair done up in buns, à la Princess Leia.
These are the people I have to work with -- no wonder I hate my job.

- feast your eyes -
If I were to score a free pass to the SIFF, these are the films I'd go see. Still, I'd much rather stay home and feast on Six Feet Under: Season 3 and The Sopranos: Season 5, out on DVD on May 17th and June 7th, respectively.

A: 1, 18, 17, 8, 4.
Q: What is the number of films Hansol saw at SIFF in each of the past 5 years?
The trend continues as I only plan on attending one movie at this year's SIFF. I can no longer get myself to pay $10/ticket, put up with obnoxious passholes, and stand in line for an hour+ just to see a movie which will likely get a theatrical/DVD release within a few months. Yeah, I really am getting old.

- overheard in new york -
Funniest thing I've read this week, courtesy of Boing Boing:
Dumb teen: Hey, look at this! It says "Train for jobs in beeyotch."
Smarter teen: Fool! That word is biotech. Why you gotta be ignorant all your life?
